Subject: Urgent Repair Notice for Broken Doors in Rental Property [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP] Re: Notice of Broken Doors in Rental Property and Demand for Prompt Repair Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention a significant maintenance issue that requires immediate attention — the broken doors in the rental property located at [Rental Address], Carlsbad, California. I would appreciate your prompt action to address this matter as it directly affects the security and safety of the premises. To further clarify the urgency and need for repair, I would like to highlight the details of the broken doors: 1. Entry Door: The main entry door leading into the rental unit has sustained damage, compromising the overall security of the property. The door does not close properly, making it susceptible to unauthorized access, weather conditions, and potential break-ins. 2. Bedroom Doors: In addition to the entry door, two bedroom doors have also been damaged. These doors are no longer functional, making it difficult to ensure privacy and security within the unit. Such issues pose a potential safety risk and must be addressed urgently. Having considered the importance of maintaining a secure and habitable living environment, I kindly request that you schedule repairs for the broken doors at your earliest convenience. As a responsible tenant, I understand that regular wear and tear are part of property management; however, timely action is crucial to prevent further deterioration and to ensure our living conditions adhere to the necessary standards of safety. Kindly note that per the terms and conditions of our rental agreement, it is the landlord's responsibility to maintain the premises and promptly address any necessary repairs to ensure a habitable living space. I am confident that you share the same commitment to ensuring a safe and secure dwelling for your tenants. I kindly request a written response within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 7 days] from the date of this letter, confirming that the repair work on the broken doors will commence promptly. Additionally, please provide an estimated timeline for completion of the repairs, which will help me plan accordingly. In the unfortunate event that this issue remains unaddressed beyond the aforementioned timeframe, I must regrettably inform you that I will have to exercise my right to seek remedies available under the applicable landlord-tenant laws, which may include, but are not limited to, withholding rent or engaging professional services to repair the doors, with the costs being deducted from future rental payments. I value our landlord-tenant relationship and believe that we can resolve this matter amicably. Thank you for your prompt attention to this urgent matter, and I look forward to hearing from you shortly. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
